Overview

Little Poland's wooden churches showcase remarkable aspects of medieval church-building traditions within Roman Catholic culture. Constructed using the horizontal log technique, these structures reflect a unique architectural style.

  • 🏰 The church style originated in the late Medieval period, particularly in the late sixteenth century.
  • 🎨 Early constructions featured Gothic ornamentation and polychrome details.
  • 🛠️ Timber construction results in a form and feeling distinct from both Gothic architecture and Polish Gothic built with stone or brick.
  • 🌟 Later buildings exhibit influences from Rococo and Baroque ornamental styles.
  • ⛪ The design of these Roman Catholic churches is significantly shaped by the Greco-Catholic and Orthodox presence in the region.
